Okay I'm done freaking out now.
I have no words for the amount of love I have for this. That ending is so perfect. Perfect, perfect! I love how you write them here. Jack and Claire both. You've just done a really excellent job with them both.
I love your description of the day and the light. That was just right, especially for the mood.
And I love those last two paragraphs. Especially that last one.
He closes his eyes and sees the road that will meet them in the morning. Maybe they'll go south. Claire had said something about wanting to see Sawyer yesterday. Maybe it will still be raining when they hit Tennessee. Maybe the storm will follow them home. Maybe it will lead them back. Maybe they won't survive it. Maybe they will be alright.
I might ask you for a sequel to this. I mean, yes? Please? Hehe.

Oh my God, Jack/Claire and road trips and storms. GUH! The atmosphere in this fic just about kills me. So perfect.
The air's yellow, somehow, the color of amber strained through glass. He glances at the horizon, sees the storm clouds rolling in from the sea.
Again: guh! I have the hugest, weirdest kink for weather, and I just love your descriptions here. So gorgeous.
He keeps his head down, notes the location of the big red EXIT sign by the stairs. Just in case. For some reason his hands are shaking. His fingers wind tight about her wrist.
As always, there are so many wonderful, amazing, quote-worthy lines in this story. I adore your Claire voice, and your Jack? Well, your Jack is just as perfect as he always is. You are brilliant, but I think I've told you that at least a hundred times before. And the kissing! And the ending! I have so much love for the ending. I have so much love for the entire fic. Guhhhhh.
